# Predicting The Past (Aeneas / Ithaca)
Aeneas (Latin) and Ithaca (Ancient Greek) perform four tasks on ancient texts:
1. **Restoration** — fill missing/damaged characters
2. **Attribution** — geographical + chronological origin
3. **Contextualization** — retrieve parallel inscriptions
4. **Embedding** — generate text embedding vectors
## Prerequisites
1. **`uv`**: Read the `uv` skill and follow its Setup instructions to ensure
`uv` is installed and on PATH.
